Timestamp for changes api

Hi all,
Currently it is possible to get a list of all changed movies (or persons / tv-shows) for a date range, but it would be great if the returned list of ID's would also indicate when the last change per item was made. For example:
"results": [
{
"id": 77946,
"adult": false
"last_changed_at": "2015-05-17 20:01:30"
},
etcetera
This way it is not necessary to request the specific changes per item if someone requests the changes made on the current date multiple times a day. With the current implementation, I do not know during the second request for a list of all changed ID's which items have been updated since the last time I requested that list; I have to call their own list of changes for every returned item to get the timestamps.
Is this something that could be implemented, if you deem it useful?

Hi, do you have any feedback on this request? This could significally decrease the number of requests I have to make daily :)

Hi filmcentrum,
You're right this would be helpful if you were making multiple requests per day. It was mostly designed with the idea that you would only check it once a day, hence everything being per day and not associated with any particular time.
I've created a new ticket for this here. I'll give it some thought.
